Hello,

My 2000 206, Mercruiser 5.7 FI, Bravo 3 was running great all day. Sat for a few hours and wouldn't turn over with the key. Both batteries were hot and we were able to jump the solenoid and the key would then start the boat. Headed back to the dock whenever I tried to accelerate past 1/3 ...

Thanks!

It started running while we were swimming nearby and the water felt hotter than the lake water. Back in the boat I lifted the engine ...

Can anyone share bunk lengths and spacing for their 206 trailer? Cobalt sent me a hull schematic but oddly all the dims are not their and they could/would not provide them.

Thanks in advance!

Hey thanks for the warm welcome!
